Lyrics — Amber Frequency
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The voltage drops when memory persists
The voltage drops when memory persists
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
She folds the map and drives without a name
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The voltage drops when memory persists
